Summary of This Score
This collection brings together major sonatas by Georg Friedrich Händel for violin with accompaniment (originally conceived with basso continuo ), offered here in an accessible and effective version for violin and piano. It is an ideal resource for violinists wishing to approach the Baroque style with rich musical material: singing melodic lines, typical ornamentation motifs, movement contrasts, and fine work on musical rhetoric (breathing, accents, articulations).
The edition, overseen by the musicological editor Stanley Sadie, emphasizes readability and stylistic coherence to facilitate both individual study and duo preparation. The collection is particularly suitable for conservatory students, teachers seeking reference pieces, as well as advanced amateur musicians wishing to consolidate their foundations in Baroque sonata (intonation, bow control, voice leading, and rhythmic precision in dances and fast movements).
Included are notably:
Sonata for Violin and Basso Continuo A major op. 1,3 HWV 361
Sonata for Violin and Basso Continuo g minor op. 1,6 HWV 364a
Sonata for Violin and Basso Continuo F major op. 1,12 HWV 370
